List Of Sovereign States
This list of sovereign states provides an overview of sovereign states
around the world, with information on their status and recognition of
their sovereignty.
Membership within the
United NationsUnited Nations system divides the 206 listed
states into three categories: 193 member states,[1] 2 observer states,
and 11 other states. The sovereignty dispute column indicates states
whose sovereignty is undisputed (191 states) and states whose
sovereignty is disputed (15 states, out of which there are 5 member
states, 1 observer state and 9 other states).
Compiling a list such as this can be a difficult and controversial
process, as there is no definition that is binding on all the members
of the community of nations concerning the criteria for statehood. For
more information on the criteria used to determine the contents of
this list, please see the criteria for inclusion section below

British Summer Time
During
British Summer TimeBritish Summer Time (BST), civil time in the United Kingdom,
IrelandIreland and
PortugalPortugal is advanced one hour forward of Greenwich Mean
Time (GMT) (in effect, changing the time zone from UTC+0 to UTC+1), so

BST begins at 01:00 GMT on the last Sunday of March and ends at 01:00
GMT (02:00 BST) on the last Sunday of October. Since 22 October 1995,
the starting and finishing times of daylight saving time across the
European UnionEuropean Union have been aligned[3] – for instance Central European

Time Zone
A time zone is a region of the globe that observes a uniform standard
time for legal, commercial, and social purposes.
TimeTime zones tend to
follow the boundaries of countries and their subdivisions because it
is convenient for areas in close commercial or other communication to
keep the same time.
Most of the time zones on land are offset from Coordinated Universal
TimeTime (UTC) by a whole number of hours (
UTC−12UTC−12 to UTC+14), but a few
zones are offset by 30 or 45 minutes (e.g. Newfoundland Standard Time
is UTC−03:30,
NepalNepal Standard
TimeTime is UTC+05:45, and Indian Standard
TimeTime is UTC+05:30).
Some higher latitude and temperate zone countries use daylight saving
time for part of the year, typically by adjusting local clock time by
an hour

Demonym
A demonym (/ˈdɛmənɪm/; δῆμος dẽmos "people, tribe",
ὄόνομα ónoma "name") is a word that identifies residents or
natives of a particular place, which is derived from the name of that
particular place.[1]
It is a neologism (i.e., a recently minted term); previously gentilic
was recorded in English dictionaries, e.g., the
OxfordOxford English
Dictionary and Chambers Twentieth Century Dictionary.[2][3][4]
Examples of demonyms include Swahili for a person of the Swahili coast
and Cochabambino for a person from the city of Cochabamba.
Demonyms do not always clearly distinguish place of origin or
ethnicity from place of residence or citizenship, and many demonyms
overlap with the ethnonym for the ethnically dominant group of a
region

Capital City
A capital city (or simply capital) is the municipality exercising
primary status in a country, state, province, or other administrative
region, usually as its seat of government. A capital is typically a
city that physically encompasses the government's offices and meeting
places; the status as capital is often designated by its law or
constitution. In some jurisdictions, including several countries, the
different branches of government are located in different settlements.
In some cases, a distinction is made between the official
(constitutional) capital and the seat of government, which is in
another place.
Capital cities that are also the prime economic, cultural, or
intellectual centres of a nation or an empire are sometimes referred
to as primate cities
